Abstract
An exercise machine includes a pair of support members having front ends connected to a crank unit for turning along with the crank unit and rear ends moving along a reciprocating path due to the guidance of a pair of guide members. A pair of foot members are each mounted on the respective support member. Each foot member moves through a substantially elliptical path, and each foot member at least partially overhangs the other foot member during at least a portion of travel along the substantially elliptical path.
